Don’t get caught playing rock-paper-scissors for who has to get up to adjust the TV volume. Get a new remote control for the big game. This RCA universal model from Amazon controls TV, satellite, cable, streaming, DVD and VCR and only costs $7.35.

You can’t go to a big game party in a plain tee — you might as well be naked. Even if you don’t really care about who wins, you still need the right gear. Get this shirt celebrating the big game in Minneapolis, Minnesota from Amazon for $19.99.

Keep the little ones who come with their parents to your party occupied with a coloring book. It’ll keep you from getting tackled by toddlers when you get up to refill your drink. This NFL coloring book has the logos of all the professional football teams in America, and it’s only $5.95 per book through Amazon.

Stop water rings on your furniture before they start by opting for the poor man’s version of a coaster. These beverage napkins are both festive and useful, and they help clean up spills. Why wouldn’t you stock up? They cost only $13.99 for 32 from Amazon.
